Faramir Posted December 2, 2021 Report Posted December 2, 2021 Answer: Yes small (l) liberals and other progressive do believe in a money tree. The fact is there is a limit which was demonstrated by economists like Laffer to what a government can squeeze out of its tax base. Progressives seem to think there is this mountain of money to be tapped. That's why they are not alarmed at ever increasing debt levels. Those who are not progressive on the other hand I think have just thrown in the towel. After clown shoes ran a 300 billion deficit it was pretty much game over as far as reigning in debt. Tax reform instituted by the Harding administration started a major growth phase in the US economy coming out of the First World War. The Roaring Twenties. Right now tax cuts for the lower and middle brackets is also so low that there really is no more room for movement. I like a tax cut like anyone, but there is little benefit to the economy cutting much lower than 15%. That just demonstrates there is a down size limit to cutting taxes as per the Laffer curve. 1 Quote

Bad but minor by all standards. Feel happy you are not ruled by an idiot like O'Tool. The game was rigged a long time ago. A small group of people hold the whole country and us in their hands - it is all a matter of how much they want to squeeze. Don't blame him for everything, his father had a hand it also. O'Toe being a honorable guy i guess just doesn't cut it in your world eh? Lol. Edited December 3, 2021 by PIK Quote Toronto, like a roach motel in the middle of a pretty living room.

I can tell you MY Ancestors did SQUAT to natives living hundreds of years ago. You DO realize though that European history is all about wave after waves of groups coming in and displacing those before them? I do blame him for trying to criminalize the criticism of Islam. And for running a 300 billion deficit. But its just what the left does. The only going for him is his smoking hot wife. 1 Quote
